Pride
versus Prejudice
Jewish Doctors and Lawyers in England, 1890-1990
Author Information - Contents - Publication Details
John Cooper's pioneering full-length study is a treasure trove of new
information, fresh in terms of the ground it covers and the material it
assembles. Building on newspapers, archives, and interviews to illustrate
the lives and professional experiences of the individuals involved, Cooper
also brings out such broad underlying themes as emancipation, antisemitism,
radical assimilation, and professionalization. This engaging work on Anglo-Jewry
will be of value to the historian and general reader alike.
John Cooper studied history at Balliol College, Oxford, and was in private legal practice until his retirement. His publications in the field of Jewish social history include Eat and Be Satisfied: A Social History of Jewish Food (1993), The Child in Jewish History (1996), and a chapter in Jewish Explorations of Sexuality (1995).
